Looks at Trump... yes, treating stupid is almost impossible

[–] BigTuffAl@lemmy.zip 54 points 3 weeks ago

Oz is living proof you can't vote these guys away.

Treating stupid is in fact really hard. Especially his kind of stupid.

So, even though Fetterman was a huge disappointment who needs to be primaried out in the next election, Dr. Oz was the alternative.

[–] MiddleAgesModem@lemmy.world 6 points 3 weeks ago

Oz won't be contesting the Democratic primary, Fetterman still needs to go.

We really should’ve completely destroyed the South

Trump's strongest support in 2024 wasn't actually in the South.

West Virginia and Wyoming, the two biggest coal producers, were the strongest supporters. There were states in the South that went for Trump, but there's also the Great Plains.

Contrast with, say, the 1920 presidential election, which was clearly a South-vs-rest-of-US result:

Just sell them a gold phone.

[–] devolution@lemmy.world 14 points 3 weeks ago

I agree. That's why you don't bother arguing or treating conservatives.

treating stupid is really hard

Let me translate: brainwashing intelligent people with the worst lies from a crooked pedo demented fascist ever is really hard.

Wrong target but a truly correct statement.

Yeah, first response to the title was: "yeah, we know"
